The thing is, the tactic of developing a firing solution with a relatively large AOU, then firing multiple missiles into that AOU so that the area searched by the torpedos cover the largest possible fraction of that area, if not the entirety of it, is a perfectly good, and very effective tactic, so even if you gave the torpedoes a smaller sensor range, I'm not sure it's clear that that the situation would change very much. It just slows the process down a little more because to maintain the equivilent effectiveness, you'd need a smaller AOU, hence spend more time developing a firing solution. The SS-N-27 / Akula is a VERY effective weapons system, even with less capable torpedos on the missile.
